(Here's the second poem in my new concept poetry set, "Dance Dance Revolutionary", which is much more poppier than my other poetry with its techno-pop, J-pop and Eurobeat influences, while also ringing true with poetic meaning and morals that let fun, creativity and emotional knowledge unite!

If you missed the opening poem of this new set, you can find it here, yay! (smiles) I'm currently polishing up the short story that will narrate the full story of this, where my poems are essentially the soundtrack of the story, and the short story I hope eventually will excite a comic book artist and that artist can turn my story into a comic book and these songs that make up the soundtrack to the story can turn into a new Dance Dance Revolution album for millions to enjoy, yay! )

Hey, it takes a little bit of rhythm,
to learn how to talk the talk,
take it slow and easy,
you gotta crawl before you can walk.
Hey, it takes a little bit of patience,
to learn how to stay on beat,
after much practicing,
a new language your feet shall speak.

We were born,
used to standing blended with the crowd,
growing determined to find ourselves,
someday standing out from the crowd,
the possibilities are endless,
like a chain of keys spread out across your hand,
there’s no feeling left to hide,
time to make destiny of where you stand
(Launch your body into orbit!)

(Hey!)

When you sign up for a season,
train your heart to try and see it through,
when you can’t fight the moonlight,
every day begin the task anew,
we’ve all had to slip and stumble,
and look at where that got each of us,
so marry yourself to your favorite beat,
and place in it a pulse of trust.

(Break it down now!)

(Hey, it’s perseverance,
that made the snail reach the ark,
hey, it’s will-power,
that ignites a star of a spark,
hey, it’s enthusiasm,
that takes us off on a flying start,
hey, you’ve got the vibe now,
now with your heels, impart!
